Market Lane Coffee

I enjoy learning about what other specialty coffee companies do in their local markets. I've been following this Australian company for a while now and wanted to share it with everyone. Below are a few pictures from their flickr site and a description taken off their website (http://www.marketlane.com.au/)









*Market Lane is a small, specialty micro-roaster and café, located in Prahran Market, Melbourne.

We source and roast specialty coffee from single farms, estates and cooperatives. We seek out distinctive and superior beans that can stand on their own without blending.Our coffees are imported from some of the best coffee growers in the world. We look for coffees that reflect the profile of their region, and coffees that challenge and surprise us. We only buy, roast, and serve coffees that taste exquisite. Coffee is an agricultural product usually harvested once a year. As with all agricultural products, there is a prime time for enjoying it and then, with age, the coffee start to decline. We therefore buy our beans in small lots to ensure that we only offer coffee that is fresh, vibrant, and at its best. Our coffee offerings change with the seasons, which means our espresso blend changes throughout the year, as do our single estate offerings.*
